Pretty much. People were banking on AOT2 to pull some sort of monster ratings but its essentially performing about exactly on par as JoJo did.

dehype due to the long stretch between seasons perhaps?
Probably why Naruto and stuff choose to do garbage filler rather than take breaks. Shitty TV is still more hype building than no TV I guess. I'm glad AoT didn't do filler though.

The only thing you could really argue being non-canon in Dragon Ball is GT since Super directly contradicts most of its events and concepts. It's more like a separate continuity at this point.
Doesn't stop it from appearing in the games and merchandise though.
The hype has cooled a lot given the gap of 4 years in between seasons. Not everybody can be The Venture Brothers.
Xenoverse.
Power levels has ascended to a level beyond in pedantic DB arguments in super.
No really somebody post the ratings.
Dio's limb freeze looks really painful. Dry skin is already a pain in the winter.

People overthink DragonBall. Alot.
Probably because Toriyama sort of went with any genre he was into (martial arts, fantasy, sci-fi) but didn't really care about any sort of world building.

Don't think the full ratings are out yet, at least not on Twitter.
I could've sworn someone (I think Shard??) posted both the numbers for before & during Toonami, but I'm not seeing it anymore.
tvbythenumbers has a top 25 cable thing (did they stop doing top 100?). It was linked earlier. The other sites which usually post the full thing for Adult Swim haven't done so yet, it seems (although they usually do on Tuesday, not sure why they are delayed this week).

I havent paid too much attention to this site this year. They don't seem to count the 11:30 airing of DBSuper, probably because it is technically a rerun. This what they have for the 8PM airing, assuming they aren't getting things mixed up.
Worth nothing that the other cable shows on at night were
NFL DRAFT (ESPN)
LIVE PD (A&E) - this is apparently a live Police in action type channel, not sure if it normally rates so high?
FULL FRONTAL: NOT THE WH CORRESPONDENTS DINNER (TBS)
Generally speaking, Toonami headliners are usually just below Saturday sporting events and occasional big things like that TBS spoof. I think that's where they should aim for anyway.

18-49 Demographic was better for Shippuden and GiTS than for Gundam: Unicorn. So I wonder if/when IBO2 premiers, where exactly on the block they will air it? 2AM is pretty late for a premiere, even if it's a continuation. My personal preference would be for the block to go:
DBS --> DBZ Kai --> AOT2 --> HxH --> IBO2 --> TG --> Shippuden --> GITS
DBS --> DBZ Kai --> AOT2 --> HxH --> IBO2 --> TG --> Shippuden --> GITS
Probably 1 AM at the start.

I just don't want HxH pushed back another half hour lol. At least boot Tokyo Ghoul to 2am DeMarco.

Shame people didn't stick around for that Super episode.
It was a really solid one.

Full Toonami ratings have finally been posted.
Samurai Jack is still crushing it and that concerns me when it ends and that hole has to be filled.
I do like how the ratings now give evidence that an unpopular show before a good one does not in fact make people drop the after show. If Naruto was in the same boat as One Piece you would be seeing a much bigger drop from Unicorn to Naruto.

that's not really something we can actually glean from the last few sets of ratings; they don't increase and decrease proportionately regardless of the actual size of the number. things are a lot lower lately than they have been for a while as far as the back half goes, so as far as we know that's just the base devoted Toonami audience.
Naruto will be pretty good for the rest of the year (Not as good as OP would have been but I digress) and the only real stinker ratings wise is Unicron.
AOT2 isn't lighting the world on fire because the phenomenon has cooled significantly in the past two years. TG is even worse in that regard because the anime and dub are both around that old.

i also think they've done a really horrendous job of advertising Attack on Titan season 2 unless they've been throwing up ads left and right during regular Adult Swim that i'm not aware of
but even then like...actual ads DURING Samurai Jack seem like they'd a good idea?

I hang out with parents a lot and my dad usually falls asleep to adult swim whenever I'm over. Samurai Jack, AOT2, and DB Super are advertised a lot along with the current lineup promo. At least once an hour.

hm maybe people just don't give a shit then
And the people who do are watching it on Crunchy or Funimation.

I would imagine a lot of people are watching the 8pm airing of Super, and that's draining the block later on.
Saturday nights have also gotten more competitive for ratings.

I wonder if the number produced now is just the number that time slot is going to generate for the foreseeable future given that, no seriously, these were the same numbers that Jojo got.
SNL gonna SNL.
It's very likely.

Ratings gonna rating.
I finally finished Persona 5 and I don't know what big game I'll do next. Probably Horizon far as PS4 games go since I haven't started it yet.

Berserk Manga - Alrighty, just finished the Golden Age Arc. Having only seen the anime up until now, the most interesting thing here was definitely how much more involved Skull Knight and Zodd were to the plot. I was also surprised by how much actual humor was in the manga. Like, nothing laugh out loud funny, but plenty a small gags scattered throughout the arc.
Casca got a raw deal out of all of this man.

It's yet to be licensed in the West, so it won't be airing on Toonami anytime soon if that is a factor in you watching the Sub or not.
I have mixed opinions on Re:Zero, but I'm also in the minority there. Re;Zero lives and dies based on its premise because, since it's a Light Novel adaptation, the main plot certainly takes its sweet time actually explaining the central plot of why what is happening to Subaru is happening.
It's definitely a haunting series, a lot like Higurashi was, but for the tone shift that they make at the halfway point, Subaru really needed to be more of an empathetic character than he ended up being for it to work, for me anyway.

I really don't think anyone has to worry about that anyway since not much happens at the End of Z.
Super can fit right in there no matter what they do.

I was recently reminded Allen Gregory was a thing that existed.
It lasted 7 episodes before being cancelled.
